Tips on how to get a raise

There is still a significant wage gap between men and women doing similar jobs and according to this article, some evidence suggests that this is at least in part due to the fact that women don't negotiate as often or for as much.

Academic research on gender and negotiation suggests that part of the unexplained gap may be tied, at least in part, to the negotiating process itself. It may be that some women have lower pay expectations. Men, on the other hand, have been found to be more likely to negotiate higher starting salaries.
